Saenger Theatre

Mobile, Alabama





Here are a few pictures taken of the Saenger Theatre in Mobile, Alabama. These were taken during the period Bill Hooper and I volunteered time to help restore the movie equipment and sound system. At the time, the theatre was owned by the University of South Alabama and the restored movie equipment was used to show summer classic films. It was indeed an enjoyable experience to run these films and for those who saw them.
